Here is our latest 500 on it`s way back to the UK
FIAT126 slightly off topic but are you the guy who sometimes sells on EBay as username LAD and I think the rest of the username is your wife's or partners name?
It's nothing bad but I am not far from you and you seem like a decent source of parts if I am every after something.
Tony
Hi Tony. Yes that is me. We are between East Grinstead and Tunbridge Wells, so not far from you. If you are ever after any parts just let me know, or if you are in the area just pop in for a cuppa.
Mine. 1970. Just got it back from a lengthy restoration.

Gorgeous! I love the cream colour I think it looks really good on the old 500s.
Very nice. Does your id plate have the colour code, and is it the original Colour ? I am thinking of changing mine and have always liked the dark red.
I had it painted in Italy in Rosso Medio color code 115
Thanks

Nice looking wee beastie--is it still in Italy or have you got back to the UK?
Here's our car, a 1962 500D that we brought back from Italy and now residing in Mukilteo, WA (north of Seattle).
It is tucked away in South Wales waiting for a Sunny dry day to be taken out(probably a long wait now)Nice looking wee beastie--is it still in Italy or have you got back to the UK?

Glad to hear that you got it back safe and sound. Do you ever get up to North Wales? I live in Saltney, just outside Chester, but JUST, by 200 yds, inside Flintshire. I did send you an e-mail regarding some assistance I required re. rear lights--did you get it OK?

Picked this up a couple of weeks back. 1972 500L. Looks like it's had a 'commercial restoration' before being imported in 2010 as there's red paint showing through the pearlescent white it now has. Overall in very good condition, needs a little tidy up with trim not fitting well and has a slight fuelling issue but I intend to pull the engine out to clean/repaint/upgrade ignition and service anyway over winter.
Anyone know how I can find out what colour the exterior and interior should of been originally?

A new member here, presenting our little Hjärtrud!
A 72' 500 L imported to Sweden a few years back.
Has been standing still for some time now, but just got her running again this weekend!
She has a 652cc and a 126 gearbox, a nice surprise!
Needs a little love and care to run properly again, but in good rust free shape!

Nice car VaBene! We tried to get VABENE for a vanity plate. I notice that in your Italian picture the license plate shows a Catania registration
